Me and my Goji tea

Posted in Momscape's Favorite Things at 2:35 pm by scortright

There’s something I’ve been so into lately: Ty got me started on drinking a cup or two of tea in the afternoons. It really helps to warm your insides when it’s snowing and snowing and snowing outside (which it does here through about April). Ty is stuck on Celestial Seasonings Perfectly Pear white tea, but I have just recently fallen in love with Yogi tea (my favorite flavor is the Green Tea Goji berry.)

So every afternoon around 2, I fill up a Stanley thermos (one of those old fashioned green things) with steaming hot water from the tea kettle and drop two tea bags in there with a squirt or two of honey. And then I sip my super hot tea from the little Stanley cup/lid. It’s a ritual that I so look forward to. Of course, I’m usually running around so much that I don’t end up drinking more than a cup or two of the stuff, but then it’s good on ice, too.

One of the best things about these Yogi teas are the little words of wisdom on the tea bags. Today, mine are: “Inspiring others toward happiness brings you happiness,” and, my favorite:
“Travel light, live light, spread the light, be the light.”
